Pair your phone before stepping away. Keep your computer awake and online so the agents remain reachable.

Before you try it

  • Pairing requires approval on the computer running the local agents. Enterprise organizations need administrator enablement.
  • Your computer must stay awake and online. The phone views and replies to local agents; execution remains on the computer.
